European industrial real estate leader Panattoni is strengthening its position in western Poland by expanding Panattoni Park Gorzów, where it has recently secured another tenant. Global logistics operator Fiege has leased 11,000 sqm in the park, which the company will use for the logistics operations of a client from the production sector. The complex is currently being expanded by around 50,000 sqm to reach its final planned area of almost 70,000 sqm by November. Its superb location next to the S3 expressway is just an hour’s drive from the German border, which makes it even more attractive to firms with international operations. One such company is Fiege – a global logistics operator that has leased 11,000 sqm in a section of the park that is currently under development. At Panattoni Park Gorzów, the company will manage the logistics operations of one of its clients, which also has production facilities within the park. The location is ideal for goods to be delivered both to recipients in Poland and in the rest of Europe. Due to the kinds of operations that are to take place, the developer will, among other measures, increase the fire load of one of the buildings leased to over 4,000 MJ/sqm.
German logistics operator Fiege was established 150 years ago. It now has operations in 14 countries and provides specialized logistics services for a wide range of industries, including fashion, health media, production, multichannel retail, and international electronic sales. The company employs almost 20,000 people worldwide and operates on 3.3 million sqm of warehousing space. In Poland, the company has a workforce of 7,000 and runs logistics operations over an area of around 500,000 sqm for many well-known clients. The Polish division is an important and rapidly expanding part of the Fiege Group.
